Notice JB:
First and foremost, I want to thank whoever gave me this book, it will recognize.
You read a book that has no title, written by an author who wishes to remain anonymous. The legend continues on the Internet, "Is it that Tarantino would have written? "" Is this a celebrity who wants to remain anonymous? .

recall that at the base, the author began publishing this book in pieces on a website, and was then spotted by an editor (the only one who physically saw the author's claim to particular editions " Sonatine, "which published the book in France). A back cover baby DID have bad bad thing "dressed in black and you have in your hands a book seller and market very well before even knowing the contents. We do not list authors who we are making the semi-anonymity (it's not a wrestling technique) Pynson first (few or no photos, no interviews), because although we are vile consumers attracted by the light of the nice product we love above all the good books (well those that are good for us ).

The story takes place in Santa Mondega, a mysterious city in South America, forgotten men and gods. One of these towns you can imagine almost deserted, with waxed mustache mobsters who sucks tequila, a reckoning medieval girls who dream of a better life by serving the tart with blueberries and dogs half mutants and completely mangy sniffing the garbage. There is no temporal or geographical indications, pure imagination, no doubt, however, since sufficiently thin plate to be left to make a concrete idea. In the remainder of the Far West, a foreigner, bourbon kid will commit a massacre, two monks will try to retrieve an object that could seal the fate of the modern world of bounty hunters kill vampires and an inspector will attempt to elucidate a series of mysterious murders, welcome to "the book without a name."
One way or another, all these characters will eventually meet, love or kill themselves, sometimes without really understanding why.
stories, viewpoints, actions or descriptions follow each other in a maelstrom of hell, which we like or not what is being read, difficult to detach.

As was ably noticed the thousands of discerning readers of this book, the references to the movies / series / music are legion.
If we want to have fun, for example, where we generation Tarantino / Rodriguez to meet those relating to directors what to do there: Scene semi-incestuous revenge for the "Kill Bill" Vampire / Bar in the "Night in Hell" stories overlap in "Pulp Fiction" (I do not pretend that "Pulp Fiction" is invented the style but it seems that for many this is the case) etc. etc.. We will not fail to smile when watching two protagonists when a third person does not know "Buffy" or even when several allusions to "The Usual Suspects" are made.
short you'll understand the target audience is 20-35 years, rather, that of the teenager who has grown up, who called him a genius seeing "Pulp Fiction", which was "marked by" American History X "and Fincher loves because" Seven "was a really good movie (I have a theory semi-secret I'll share that can be One day, about the movies like everyone but do not worship syndrome, RHCP actually arg). What
air actually quite successful since the book was a success and hundreds of posts on various forums list all such references. If we try now our turn to draw a composite sketch of the author we have:
- Age: 30 years
- probably a boy
- probably like a mini-tarantino (a little geek who does not grow)
short it is vague enough to be worth very little, except that the author writes with his references to an audience enough broad to recognize it, Bingo ...

In terms of style and writing talent we will return by cons. It's very simple, low end, in a style a little comic finally, lots of action, lots of stuff, sometimes a little one-upmanship.

To read or not? :
Yes. I took a pleasure to read a little different this little UFO but I liked it. If you have in your cup "Kobayashi," you hesitate to go see "Machete" to the movies, you know by heart Danny Trejo text before the "Tity Twister" or you think "Reservoir Dogs" is almost a movie writer, go for vile "cucarachas enojadas"
